Or the fly on Hillary during the 2016 debates?
shareYes, we do, and we remember Alex Jones demagoguing about it.... so no quarter is given now.

I'd be more concerned about Pence's eye. If it happens to be conjunctivitis that could be worrisome, as this has been known to be a symptom in some cases of COVID-19.
So you are using someone like Alex Jones of all people, to justify your behavior? Yikes.
shareI didn't hear too much of an outcry about it at the time. Trump did nothing to distance himself from Alex Jones. And there is no denying that Alex Jones panders to the hardcore fundamentalist right. There's no denying Trump has on occasion done the same. Anyway, I chop off at the ankles any talk of "Anti-Christ" regardless of which party is on the receiving end. It was just a fly. Period. It was probably attracted to hair spray, or cologne, or make up in ALL cases. How come those on the right rarely if ever come out and says what I just said?
sharePeople are making fun of Pence for potentially, maybe smelling bad. That's it.
Alex Jones was saying the fly landed on Obama because he's a literal demon who smells like sulfur, which was agreed upon by the majority of the alt-right as well as the majority of evangelicals.
Well put, and we shouldn't try to pander to their way of thinking we'll never win them over because we won't.
shareDo burst blood vessels scare you?
shareBlood vessel, my ass. That was the Red Eye of Sauron showing through.
shareSure, bud.

Playing pretend is so much more fun than science, isn't it? Science is boring.
Oh please, that was then and this is now.
PENCEFLY Rules!!
Cower before the power of Pencefly, peasant.
Even flies were pro-Obama!
shareFlies obviously like the taste of Obama's skin.
I don't know what Pence puts in his hair, but it's obviously tasty to flies, too.
So a fly landed on a guy, big deal. Obama freaking ate the fly that landed on his lip! Just like Belloq in Raiders of the Lost Ark, he ate it, like a snake.
shareCan we be honest that the fly represents evil? Seems to happen to all the leaders. The fly knows best that these leaders are all liars hence lord of flies/lies.
